A man held a gun to his head at a Goodbee convenience store for about two hours Saturday, according to the Sheriff’s Office.

The incident happened at the Quick Way store on Louisiana 1077, south of Interstate 12.

SWAT was summoned at about 12:45 p.m. in response to the incident, which was resolved by around 3 p.m., according to the Sheriff’s Office.

The spokesman said two deputies were able to get inside the store early in the standoff to protect the store workers and customers.

The man was shot with a bean bag, allowing deputies take him into custody, according to the spokesman. The bean bag did not injure the man, the Sheriff's Office said.

After the incident was brought to a peaceful conclusion, the man was taken to a hospital for psychiatric evaluation. He was not arrested because he never threatened anyone else and never pointed the gun at anyone else, the spokesman said.
